Moschino Ad Gone Wrong

Moschino 2015 Ad Missing Limb!

Steven Meisel is known for his eye for shooting fashion as well as his ability to be both gripping and arresting. His latest shoot for Moschino Spring 2015 may leave you, wanting more… like… a whole other leg more. I’m not quite sure if the model wanted to loose a few lbs. before the shoot so she lopped off her own leg or if she had a friend help her but, the image doesn’t lie, HER LEG IS MISSING!

According to this creepy site, a human leg weighs 10% of your total mass, so there we have it – Mystery Solved! The culprit is a serious dedication to weight loss.

But really…

I don’t know what’s worse… the fact that the images are all in black and white? Or that they thought a missing limb was okay even after photo finishing etc. Moschino… where is your composition team? I just find it odd that (assuming that the missing leg in the photo wasn’t touched up) that they would approve this image as the feature ad? Baffling. A leg is kind of one of those things you notice…

OR… THEY WANT US TO TALK ABOUT IT, SO THEY PURPOSEFULLY REMOVED HER LEG! BASTARDS!

Anything’s possible. But the fact is, Luss still has her leg and Meisel still has a job so this must have been a mother of an oversight. Their Photoshop department really needs to cool there heel on the eraser tool. Pick up there foot when it comes to final checks and get down on their knee and apologize for the slip up.

I had too…

Regardless, all this coverage of the Spring 2015 Moschino campaign, the Photoshop fail and the debate about its black and white nature allow us to see one truth… that the collection is actually super awesome! It’s fun, fresh, and non-apologetic. Perfect for Spring Summer.

So hop on down to your local Moschino shop and pick up the new collection by Jeremy Scott.

Thanks to TheFashionSpot for first noticing the missing leg and giving me something to laugh at today.
